Radiology Imaging Associates

What a racket/​scam they run over here. You go for a routine mammogram and Of course they need to find a «possible something» that way they can get you back in to bill you more on that «possible something» 9 months later and it’s no longer a routine mammogram at that point because they claim to find something that turns out to be nothing but since they found a «possible something» the insurance company can’t be billed as routine. It is now preventative and costs more and doesnt qualify as routine. You seeing the loop here? GO SOMEPLACE ELSE! — If they claim to have found a possible something. Get another mammogram the next year for that follow up at a different place. The possible something could have been lint for all you know. It’s like the dentist that wants to fill micro cavities. They want to work and get paid more than what really is required. Insurance scammers.
Be wiser.

This is the first medical facility I have ever been to where the person making my appointment actually accommodated me. I only get one week day of per month. When I let the appointment person know that, she got me in same day! At the appointment I found everyone who worked there friendly, accommodating, and helpful. Absolutely the best mri experience I have ever had. I really recommend this facility! If I need another mri, this is where I’m going!

Great place, even better nuclear med technologist. The nuclear med technologist (older lady) with a lot of sarcasm, was just so nice and comforting.
She made my experience so much better because I was quite nervous she calmed down. It was super easy my gastric emptying appointment I had done.

My rating is very specifically about their protection of records. I needed copies of reports from 2 years ago for a dr appt tomorrow. I called this morning and the lady was very stern with me, insisting that I must appear in front of them personally with a govt issued photo ID and they would produce them on the spot. But then my day got out of hand, I wasn’t going to make it to their office before it closed. I called back. This time it was much easier:
Me: Oh good, you’re still there! I need to get copies of some reports faxed to me.
Her: Patients date of birth?
Me: (I answered)
Her: Last name?
Me: (I answered)
Her: I have it right here. There were X exams in XXXX (she rattled off what they were). Do you need all of the reports?
Me: Yes, please.
Her: What is the fax number?
Me: (I provided)
Her: You’ll have them in about 15 minutes. Have a good evening!
Me: Thanks!
Then I hung up and realized she didn’t even ask me who I was. Anyone who knew I’d ever been there and knew my date of birth and last name could have received these reports. NOT GOOD.

Visted the Sterling location after Dr said I needed a CT Scan. When I called for appt this were very nice and offered me several time choices and were very informative. Once I arrived at the location, although busy, everyone was pleasant and I once registered I was seen within 5 minutes. The waiting is nice and well decorated. My technicain Jason greeting me was veyr friendly and took be back to prepare for the CT Scan. He was clear and explained all he was doing throughout the process and was very friendly an nice as he did it. I was nervous as I had not had this doen before and he made things go very smoothly. I was walking ou the door to go home in about 40 minutes. This place is great. It looks, good rooms are spotless and the staff and technicns are terrific. I would not hesitate to return here if needed. I do recommend this location.

I recently went to this center for an ultrasound and loved the whole experience. The receptionist was very nice and patient with my 3 year old (who loves to touch everything). I had to wait for about 10 minutes but didn’t mind it since my daughters were playing in the kids area). The reception is clean and beautiful. The radiologist was very helpful, and the results were faxed to my doctor on the same day.
I’m going back in a couple of days for a biopsy and received a call today from one of the technicians explaining the procedure and what to expect. I’m very happy so far with this place, will update if something changes.

Didn’t not like this facility at all… Sonographer was too chatty and the Radiologist didn’t even come in the room… Wouldn’t go there again… The place is top notch you look like you’re walking into a spa or a resort but their patient care sucks!!!

We took our 4 yeard old to RIA for a CT Scan. We were nervous parents hoping and RIA just made teh whole experience painless and easy. To start the office is nice and clean. The receptionist who handled our appointment was extremely kind and helpful. During the scan the 2 people handling the scan were amazing. One of them actually got on the machine to show my son exactly what was going to happen and then held his hand through the process. They provided our images right away and promised to fax the details to our doctor before the day’s end. On the out my son was given a certificate for his bravery which made hime very happy.
Like others who have commented on Unilocal… it is seems strange to be wowed by a radiology office but we had such a great experience it deserves to acknowledged.

I went to this location because of the great review I found on
. All the employees were just wonderful — friendly, helpful, and caring. I had an MRI of my leg and was very nervous about it. They got the results to my doctor very quickly.

Wow! This location is night and day from the Ashburn one. Things run much more smoothly and, not that the Ashburn people are mean in the least bit, but people here just seem so genuine and so happy to help in any way that they can. The Sterling location is not nearly overcrowded either.
First off, how on earth could I be wowed by a radiology office, right? Well, this place has a real knack for hiring some great people. Everyone at the front desk is wonderful. They are kind, patient, helpful, and sincere. Then, when I had to get the longest, most boring scan known to man done, I was luckiest enough to have the best person imaginable to do it for me, Linda. Linda is so incredibly warm and reassuring. She is knowledgeable and experienced, and she tells you just the right amount of information about what she’s doing and why. She was so kind and funny that she really made a long, boring, somewhat awkward scan bearable. I really can’t imagine a more pleasant person to have spent two hours with, haha.
In short, I would gladly drive to the Sterling location if I ever have to get another xray. From start to finish, everyone was just a real joy! They made what could have been an annoying session of feeling like I was being poked and prodded by everyone feel more like being seen by an old family friend. Thank you so much to everyone at RIA.

5 stars across the board — staff, location, total wait time, overall experience.
My doctor ordered x-​rays to check for a stress fracture in my left foot. I can’t tell you how happy I was to realize that I didn’t need an appointment. When I arrived at RIA, I fully expected to have a significant wait due to the lack of appoint and a half-​full waiting room. Boy was I wrong! I signed in and was called to register in just a few minutes of sitting down. The admitting receptionist was friendly and polite and the entire registration process took only a minute or two. Just moments after returning to my seat, I was called back to the x-​ray room. The imaging was done quickly and efficiently. My entire experience was 15 – 20 minutes; from registration to completion.
I’m hoping I won’t have a reason for additional radiology testing in the near future, but if I do. .. I’ll be sure to head to RIA in Sterling.

Best experience for an x-​ray, I’ve had with any of my 3 kids! I took my 2 year old son in this morning, expected to be there an hour. The waiting room was busy, still it only took 2 mins to register and another 5 to be seen. From the receptionist to the the technicians, everyone was friendly and professional. The techs were very friendly and patient with my son. They checked the x-​rays before we left, whole trip took about 15 mins. Unbelievable! What a relief. Will definitely go there again.
